As part of our commitment to becoming a low-carbon campus, Western is looking to embed sustainable design as part of any new construction or major renovation on campus. The use of an external certification program, such as LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) not only helps showcase our commitment but comply with internationally-recognized standards and performance measurements.
LEED certified buildings create a better indoor environment for occupants, have high quality insulation and air quality, and consume less energy and water than traditional buildings. These outcomes are aligned with Western's long-term sustainability goals and help create a greener campus.
